Headless Livestock on So Cal Beach

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Decapitated Animals at Laguna Beach

— November 18, 2007 — Naughty
Sounds a lot like “The 12 Days of Christmas": two headless goats, three decapitated chickens, a beheaded rooster and a dove :

"The headless goats were found inside a purple burlap sack on the sand a week ago. The other beheaded animals turned up in recent days," Yahoo news reported.

However, local police at Laguna Beach can't figure out where all the decapitated animals are coming from. "It's something I haven't seen in my 18 years on the job," Laguna Beach police Sgt. Jason Kravetz told the Los Angeles Times.

"We are looking at all kinds of things -- Halloween prank stuff, kids or cold, ritualistic-type activities," Kravetz said. "They are wet. That means they are close to the surf line or they are washing up.'

This is not what you'd expect to find in Southern California, especially not at one of the most beautiful beaches.
Trend Themes
1. Headless Animal Discoveries - The trend of discovering headless animals on Southern California beaches creates an opportunity for innovative solutions in animal welfare and beach surveillance systems.
2. Mysterious Animal Rituals - The trend of decapitated animals found on Laguna Beach raises questions about potential ritualistic activities, presenting opportunities for businesses in the field of cultural research and investigation.
3. Unconventional Pranks - The trend of beheaded animals being discovered on the beach suggests a new wave of unconventional pranks, opening opportunities for companies in the entertainment and prank industry to develop innovative prank products.
Industry Implications
1. Animal Welfare - The animal welfare industry can leverage the headless animal discoveries on Southern California beaches to develop new interventions and preventive measures for animal cruelty.
2. Cultural Research - The cultural research industry can capitalize on the mysterious animal rituals found on Laguna Beach to uncover the motives behind these activities and provide insight into cultural practices.
3. Entertainment and Prank - The entertainment and prank industry can create innovative prank products inspired by the trend of beheaded animals on the beach, catering to audiences seeking unconventional experiences.
